Oh no - I'd love 2/3 of those!

Could you PM re the Strat and LP?

DPD were kind enough to drop this off this morning.

FSR Surf Green 2012 Strat. I've been watching this on-line for a few months, originally priced up at around £1200, now dropped to £899. So a nice bargain and especially nice colour for as lefty.
Strat cheery busted. biggrin
Nice to go with the Vintage Lemon Drop.

Thanks for the PM, I'm sorry for not replying.

Hopefully I'll be picking up my new toy (an Ibanez JS1000) on Saturday!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your guitar's a really obvious fake... they've built it the wrong way round!

It's strange, isn't it, but LH's always look somehow 'wrong' to my mind. Is it just me?

No, it isn't you, it is something to do with how the brain of a right handed person processes this information. (I think!)

They look odd to me as well (I'm right handed). Do any left handed people find that guitar 'odd'?

Added a few new guitars to the stable this week; The JEM7VWH, a new old stock '01 RG550, an '83 Ibanez AE405TV Acoustic and the RG570GN. There are a lot of bargains out there at the moment and it's hard to resist!

biggrin

Your name sounds familiar Malam! Did you used to post on Jemsite? With all those Ibanez guitars I'm guessing so!

I'm sure you know this but the Italian word for 'left' is 'sinestre'....and that's exactly where it came from....in olden days, people who were left-handed were thought to be evil and....sinister! Full of useless facts I am. hehe

I'm left handed, but play right handed. I think it looks plain odd.

I know I'm properly left handed too, because I bash one out with left hand only.

Best there was, was a lefty hehe
I am not 100% lefty, just one of those crazy mixed up kids, i.e switch between left and right handedness.
I can play golf left or right handed, but I can only putt left handed. I have tried right handed playing too. I can strum
right handed, but not pick and certainly cannot fret with my left hand.

I must admit, if I see Youtube vids of other fellow leftys, it even looks odd to me.

Left to right:
Columbus Series 2 Les Paul copy. My first guitar, a 17th birthday present. Nice tone, bad quality, except for the hand wound pickups I fitted.
Epiphone SG 310. A 21st birthday present. It is rubbish
Line 6 Variax modelling guitar.
Gibson Les Paul BFG. Words cannot adequately describe how much I love this guitar.
Squier Jazz bass
Squier Jazz bass fretless, upgraded with Fender hardware, electronics, and Seymour Duncan pickups.
Danelectro short scale bass.
Hohner Steinberger bass copy
Crafter round back electro acoustic
Eko Spanish nylon acoustic

Incorrect, Gilmour is right-handed and still alive.
